Gifting
Buying crackers for somebody else: what can legally travel, which packs suit a family with children, and how corporate gifting differs from a household gift.
Every other page on this site assumes you are buying crackers for yourself. These are for the times you are buying them for somebody else, and that turns out to be a different problem entirely. A cracker is the only gift you cannot courier, cannot post, cannot send abroad and cannot deliver into every state, and it arrives in somebody's home as something that burns. None of that applies to a box of sweets.

How to Choose
Start with the pillar. It lays out the five constraints that decide whether a cracker gift works at all, and points at the page that owns each one, which is the fastest way to find out early that the address you have in mind sits in a state which will not take the parcel. Already know what you want? Go straight to the transport and state-lines pages. Buying for a company rather than a household? The corporate and employee-versus-client pages carry the tax and input-credit detail a sweets vendor never has to think about.
